I care...why?

Because you've seen his son on TV.

 

Sorry, this is gonna sound REALLY cold hearted, but for christ sakes, are we gonna have a RIP thread for EVERY person that dies who has EVER been on TV?

In a world of crazy ass parents who push their kids to be superstars, only to have them meltdown or become incredible @ssholes.....it seems like Earl did right.

 

RIP

So Tiger was born when Earl was 42?

Tida, Tiger's mom, is actually Earl's second wife. Tiger has 3 siblings from the first marriage. I picked this off an interview with Earl.

 

He met Tiger's mother, Tida, in Thailand, where he was the officer in charge of running the army's recreational services; bowling alleys, cinemas and so on. He was looking to hire some local labourers, she was the secretary at the office. The rest is history - as was his first marriage, to Barbara, from which he has three children, two sons and a daughter, all now in their forties. He struggles to remember where exactly all live and work, so it is with some trepidation that I ask what kind of relationship he has with them these days.

 

'Pretty good. I don't see them that often. I telephone. I talk to them maybe once a month. My only regret is that I was in the military service and because of my commitments I wasn't able to spend as much time with them as I should have done when they were growing up.'
